Why does a manual transmission car have sluggish throttle response?
1 Answers
Sluggish throttle response in a car, which means insufficient vehicle power output, can be caused by the following reasons: Specific causes: Problems in any part of the three systems - intake system, ignition system, or fuel system - may lead to sluggish throttle response. Solutions: Check the fuel quality to see if inferior gasoline is being used, which may cause incomplete combustion and result in sluggish throttle response. Inspect the ignition system to ensure it is functioning properly and firing accurately, as unstable ignition can easily cause sluggish throttle response. Examine the intake system for blockages; if clogged, the throttle body needs cleaning. Check if the fuel injectors are clogged or damaged; if faulty, clean the blockage or replace the fuel injectors.
